Greetings,
I am building out a garage into a project studio and have many questions. Here are links to a preliminary drawing and picture of the garage itself http://gdurl.com/s0NT, http://gdurl.com/qjJs.
The garage interior is 20' x 24' with a peak height of 16' and cement floor and has no neighbors on 3 sides. One side has a residential property with 4' wide breezeway between house and garage (shared roof).
The whole structure is semi temporary, so I don't want to spend a ton of money building a room within a room. My initial questions are, does anybody have any recommendations on ISO booths (dimensions, windows, materials, pitfalls, etc.), control room windows (thinking about just going with sliding glass patio door)?
This will be mostly for tracking rock bands live and then doing the usual overdubs.
Thanks in advance for you help!

Re: Garage Studio
My bad! Sorry. I have updated my profile. I do have a new drawing as well.
Thanks for the gentle schooling.

Re: Garage Studio
There's still some stuff in the forum rules that you seem to have missed. Better check them again!
Also, it seems that you are asking for someone to do the entire design of your complete studio for you for free! That's not what this forum is about. The forum is a self-help resource, where you have to do most of the work yourself, and folks here will help you out for free when you get stuck, or if you have a specific question, or if you seem to have made a mistake in your design. But nobody here is going to spend the hundreds of hours that it takes to design a complete studio, for free. That's a lot of work!
People here will help you for free, certainly, but they won't do all of the work for you for nothing! Your have to do most of it yourself, and just ask for help when you have a problem.
If you prefer to pay someone to design your entire studio for you, then there are several people here who can do that for you.
Or if you don't want to pay, then you can do what all the other forum members do here: post all of the information referred to above, then do some research using the vast amount of information available for free on the forum, then do a rough design of how you think you want your studio, and ask for comments on ways of improving that. Or if you find something that you don't understand while you are researching, then ask a question about that and people here will certainly answer your questions, no problem. That's what we do best, I think!
